Sufism (Tasawwuf), the path of spiritual purification, is the essence of Islam. Ironically, misunderstandings regarding it remain prevalent.

This book's author, Al-Habib Umar bin Hafiz, is a living master of both the inward and outward sciences of Islam. With clarity and authority, he succinctly provides a definitive understanding of Sufism and the ten most important traits of its true people. Any claims that contradict these qualities have no authentic connection with Sufism.

May Allah ﷻ magnify its benefit for the author, reader, and the entire Ummah of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
